The Charity Commission, the independent regulator of charities in England and Wales, has opened a statutory inquiry into Mesifta Talmudical College, registered charity number 312905<\/a>. The inquiry was opened on 30 September 2016.<\/p>\n

The charity is based in London and has objects to promote Jewish religious education and learning. Until recently, it was part of the Commission\u2019s class inquiry<\/a> into charities that have defaulted on 2 or more occasions on their legal obligations to submit annual accounting information to the regulator. On 10 December 2015 the charity ceased to be part of the class inquiry after it had submitted the outstanding accounting documents. The inquiry report<\/a> was published by the regulator on 16 January 2016.<\/p>\n

Despite the regulator\u2019s recent enforcement action to ensure the trustees were compliant, the charity failed again to submit its annual accounts, report and returns for the latest financial year which were due by 31 July 2016. The Commission has already exercised its statutory powers to direct the trustees to prepare and submit the information and an explanation for the repeated default, so this can be considered before further action by the regulator is considered.<\/p>\n

The inquiry will examine:<\/p>\n
